Lamperd Less Lethal Gains New Police Services Clients and Signs New Distributor for Wildlife Control; Initial Orders Received From All
Pepper Blast Program for Active Shooters Advances On-Track
SARNIA, Ontario, May 7, 2018 (NewMediaWire) -- Lamperd Less Lethal, Inc. (OTC PINK: LLLI), an innovation leader and manufacturer of advanced security solutions for law enforcement, military and other users worldwide, has begun working with four new police services clients in Canada since January of this year to supply products and services on an ongoing basis. The new clients have already started placing orders for our ammunition and distraction devices which they consider to be of the highest quality in terms of versatility, reliability, manufacturing methods and cost effectiveness. Lamperd Less Lethal is committed to supporting police services and all its clients in every way possible. Because of non-disclosure requirements, details on the exact types and quantities of products for the new police services clients cannot be released.
Additionally, in March of this year a new distributor agreement was signed with Kodiak Wildlife Products, Inc. of Canmore, Alberta, Canada for sales of the full Lamperd product line. The first order from Kodiak, for Lamperd distraction rounds to be sold to the general public, has already been booked and shipped. Last week Kodiak reported that customers were giving extremely positive feedback on the Lamperd 12 gauge distraction rounds for use as a humane method of bear control and had actually sold out the first shipment Lamperd made to them. Lamperd is now working to fill two new purchase orders from Kodiak for this product which are planned for delivery within the month of May. Kodiak also supplies products to various police services and Lamperd expects additional purchase orders from them in this capacity as well.
On Lamperd’s Pepper Blast program to address the threat of active shooters in schools and other public places, our VP of Training, Dr. Ed Bogats, Jr., has successfully completed his April training course and is currently preparing for his May schedule. Dr. Bogats, has now certified 15 new instructors from 9 different police agencies in the use of Lamperd products as counter-measures to active shooters. These instructors will introduce the products along with training to their respective school districts, when approved, so that teachers and school staff can use them to disable a shooter without the risks of employing guns or other deadly force measures. Lamperd is currently preparing for production and distribution of Pepper Blast to schools and other facilities throughout the U.S. and other countries.
